Hopefully my last question on this for a while. Thanks for all your community help to get me to this point.
In my order guide, I need to check the values selected in my list collector variable, and if certain values are selected then the value of a yes/no variable is set to Yes. I have the following, which works ok for the value selected.
function onSubmit() {
var gr = g_form.getValue('catalog_list'); // getting the List Collector Variable value
var ar = gr.split(',');
if(ar.indexOf("55d3db6a1b105914ce1564a2b24bcb32") > -1){ // used sys_id of selected record
g_form.setValue('needs_approval', 'Yes');
return true;
}}
My question is how to query multiple sys_ids on the highlighted line. I suspect a load of if/else statements is not the most efficient (or professional!!) scripting technique
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi,
something like this
function onSubmit() {
var gr = g_form.getValue('catalog_list'); // getting the List Collector Variable value
var ar = gr.split(',');
if(ar.indexOf("55d3db6a1b105914ce1564a2b24bcb32") > -1 || ar.indexOf("sysId2") > -1 || ar.indexOf("sysId3") > -1){ // used sys_id of selected record
g_form.setValue('needs_approval', 'Yes');
return true;
}
}

Hi Cirrus,
You can use switch statements to get rid of multiple if/else statements.
